Vulnerability scanning is a type of security detection (penetration attack) behavior that uses a vulnerability database to find exploitable vulnerabilities in a designated remote or local computer system via scanning and other methods. A vulnerability scan identifies and classifies system flaws in computers, networks, and communications equipment, as well as predicts how effective countermeasures will be.

An organization's IT department or a security service provider may conduct a scan, possibly as a condition imposed by some authority to find out the potential threats that might take place. Furthermore, a vulnerability scanner runs from the person inspecting the attack surface in question to the endpoint of the scanner. Details about the targeted attack surface are compared to a database of known security holes in services and ports, packet construction anomalies, and potential paths to exploitable programs or scripts.

The scanner software tries to exploit every flaw it finds. Therefore, due to its assistance in network securities for organizations across BFSI sector, there is expected to be a growth in the vulnerability scanning in BFSI market in the upcoming years.
